Eat The Unique Sundae Offered At Caliche S Frozen Custard In New Mexico

There’s no doubt green chile is king in New Mexico. Stop by any restaurant in the Land of Enchantment and you’re bound to find some hint of the piquant pepper on the menu.

While it’s a popular option in savory dishes, you may also encounter chile in an unusual section: desserts. These particular menu options are few and far between but they can be found occasionally in restaurants and dessert shops. One such location is over at Caliche’s Frozen Custard, located in southern New Mexico.

For nearly 25 years, Caliche’s has been serving frosty sweet treats in a retro atmosphere to Las Cruces and its surrounding communities.

Frozen custard is the main menu item here, denser and richer than traditional ice cream. And the most unique menu options include green chile.

A green chile marmalade is one of the options for sundaes, concretes (the shop’s version of a blended, frozen custard), and shakes at Caliche’s.

…or their concretes. Add it alone to a vanilla concrete or opt for an upgrade with salted pecans and other toppings.
